[SYNC] Indicators
These indicators show the operating status of the
Ri8-D/Ro8-D's internal Dante network capability.
If the green indicator lights, the unit is operating as a
word clock slave and synching to the word clock.
If the green indicator flashes, the unit is operating as
the word clock master.
If the power to the unit is turned on but the green
indicator is turned off, the unit is not functioning
properly. In this case, refer to the "Messages" section
(see page 18).
If the orange indicator lights or flashes, refer to the
"Messages" section.

• Switch 4 (SECONDARY PORT)
This switch setting determines whether the rear-panel
[SECONDARY] connector will be used for a daisy
chain or redundant network.
With the [DAISY CHAIN] setting, you can connect
multiple Dante-enabled network devices in a daisy
chain without using a network switch. Refer to "Daisy
Chain Network" in the "About Connections" section
(see page 14) for more information about daisy chain
connections.

Description
The setting range of the
[UNIT ID] rotary switch is
from 0 to F.
The setting range of the
[UNIT ID] rotary switch is
from 10 to 1F.
With the [REDUNDANT] setting, the [PRIMARY]
connector will be used for primary connections, and
the [SECONDARY] connector will be used for
secondary (backup) connections. If the unit is unable
to transmit signals through the [PRIMARY]
connector for some reason (e.g., due to damage or
accidental removal of the cable, or a failed network
switch), the [SECONDARY] connector will
automatically take over communications and
functions on the redundant network. Refer to "About
Redundant Networks" in the "About Connections"
section (see page 14) for more information on
redundant networks.

• Switches 5 and 6 (REMOTE) (Ri8-D only)
When you plan to monitor or control the Ri8-D from
a digital mixing console, these switches determine
whether to use an Ri8-D-native compatible device
such as CL Series or a non-Ri8-D-native device such
as M7CL Series. Information on which devices feature
Ri8-D-native support is available at the Yamaha pro
audio website product page:
